Product Features
Technical Overview
This printhead operates at 203 dots per inch resolution, producing clear, legible text and graphics on thermal labels. The dual-technology support allows users to switch between thermal transfer (using ribbon) for durable, long-lasting prints and direct thermal (heat-sensitive media) for applications requiring simpler media handling.
The printhead integrates seamlessly with Zebra's industrial printer architecture, maintaining the mechanical and electrical specifications required for reliable operation. The design focuses on consistent heat distribution across the print width to ensure uniform image quality throughout the printhead's service life.
